The Transmigrator Who Changed Doupo

In no time, a small area of ​​the vast valley was planned out. Having recalled the black-clad figure who had been wreaking havoc, Xiao Xuanyuan and his companion began the most primitive cultivation of spiritual herbs.

Now that he is a fifth-grade alchemist, Xiao Xuanyuan has some experience in cultivating spiritual herbs. After he entered the world of alchemy, the old alchemist also gave him some basic tips on cultivating low-level spiritual herbs, which are now proving useful.

Xiao Xuanyuan decided to use this area as a test to see if the first batch of medicinal herb seeds could be planted and successfully cultivated.

Time flows slowly by, the sun sets and the moon rises... then the moon sets and the sun rises again, and in the blink of an eye, a night and a day have passed...

On this designated medicinal field, Xiao Xuanyuan and Hei Sha worked together to remove all the weeds, till and loosen all the soil, and planted all the medicinal herb seeds.

"Brother Xuanyuan, Sister Sha'er is so tired." After working for so long, Hei Sha was also covered in sweat, and the delicate body transformed by the Six Paths of Reincarnation Flame was somewhat blurred.

"Then you take a rest first. I'll water this medicinal field first." Xiao Xuanyuan also took a deep breath, wiped away some sweat, and then spread his Purple Cloud Wings and came to the huge, rushing waterfall.

After a moment's thought, he took a gourd from his waist and began to frantically suck in the water from the cascading waterfall...

In less than half an hour, all the medicinal fields had been irrigated. Xiao Xuanyuan was so tired that he could hardly stand up straight, so he sat down on the ground to regulate his breathing and recover his body.

I don't know how much time passed, but I regained my peak condition. At this moment, the sky was full of stars, and the moon hung high in the sky, making for a very beautiful scene.

After admiring the view for a while, Xiao Xuanyuan chose a spot in front of the highest point of the nearby woodland and set up his tent. As soon as he finished setting it up, his stomach started growling.

Chapter Ninety-Four: One Year

"I just happened to have slaughtered a few decent-looking magical beasts while chasing them away. They should taste good for a wild barbecue..."

Thinking this, Xiao Xuanyuan's gaze shifted to the lifeless bodies of several wild magical beasts lying on the ground not far away. He then stood up, walked towards the beasts whose life force had vanished, and crouched down...

Before long, the four or five wild magical beasts were skinned, gutted, cleaned, and roasted over a crackling, blazing fire.

Xiao Xuanyuan's hands were equally skilled, flipping and turning the food left and right, using various fragrant spices he took out from his storage ring. In less than half an hour, several dishes of roasted wild magical beast meat, with a mouthwatering aroma and a golden sheen, were almost finished.

"Wow, it smells so good! Brother Xuanyuan, I want to eat!" The black-veiled girl, who had just returned to Nashi to rest, suddenly jumped out of Xiao Xuanyuan's body and transformed into human form. She looked hungry and stared longingly at the several pieces of roasted monster meat that were emitting a strong aroma. Xiao Xuanyuan, who was watching from the side, found it very funny.

"Hehe, little glutton, here you go!" Xiao Xuanyuan chuckled and handed her a skewer of golden-yellow, delicious roasted meat. Hei Sha didn't care about anything else at this moment. She stretched out her fair, delicate hands, which looked like they could be pinched to release water, and grabbed the meat. She opened her mouth wide and began to gnaw and chew wildly, completely ignoring the scalding heat emanating from the roasted meat.

"Be careful..." Xiao Xuanyuan originally wanted to remind the little girl, but seeing Hei Sha's unreserved attitude, he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue. Indeed, as the Six Paths Reincarnation Flame ranked twenty-first on the Strange Flame Ranking, how could Hei Sha be afraid of such a scorching temperature? She just needed to avoid burning others.

Shaking his head slightly, Xiao Xuanyuan chuckled as he popped a large, golden-brown skewer of grilled meat into his mouth, eating with hearty relish to drive away the emptiness and chill within him and the last trace of physical fatigue…

Sunrise and sunset, time flew by in the blink of an eye, and another day had arrived for incubating and watering numerous medicinal herb seeds. Xiao Xuanyuan nimbly climbed out of the tent, and after a quick wash, began his grand plan to research and incubate medicinal herb seeds.

Six Blue Flowers is a rare and precious spiritual herb, seldom seen in the world. When mature, it grows six strange blue petals that emit a unique medicinal fragrance. It can not only soothe the mind but also repair and enhance the soul of cultivators, making it extremely miraculous.

However, the growth conditions of the Six Green Flowers are quite demanding. They must grow in soil rich in spiritual energy and fertile ground. Their growth cycle is calculated based on the concentration of spiritual energy in the surrounding space. The richer the spiritual energy, the faster their growth can be increased, and the larger and thicker the green petals that grow will be, which will improve the success rate of medicine making.

Not only that, at the end of each year, the surrounding world needs a heavy, icy snowfall to preserve and accelerate the growth of the spiritual energy in the petals of the Six Blue Flowers…

Such living conditions can only be met in extremely cold and frozen places, which is why the Six Green Flower spiritual herb is so rare and extremely difficult to find.

Earth Dragon Essence, a rare and precious medicinal herb, has a mature form that resembles a long, dark yellow dragon rooted deep in the earth. Its growth conditions are equally demanding: the soil must be constantly moist with water, and this flowing water must contain a rich water elemental energy. The sun in the sky must shine intensely and continuously. If conditions do not permit, moonlight with its yin energy can be used as a substitute, provided that the energy is sufficient...

Xiao Xuanyuan meticulously selected the growing conditions for various spiritual herbs, constantly exhausting his patience to create unique growing environments for each herb seed. These environments were similar to human vegetable greenhouses, but were extremely complex and cumbersome.

Most alchemists don't usually waste their energy on this level of medicine because they don't think it's worth it.

Instead of wasting energy and time on this, it would be more important to focus on studying alchemy formulas and improving the success rate of alchemy, thereby raising the level of your alchemy skills.

Although Xiao Xuanyuan had some knowledge of this subject before, it was only a general understanding, and he had not devoted much effort to it. Now, the test on the second floor of the Divine Medicine Pavilion had stumped him for a while.

However, there was no other way; this was the second level of the test. Without passing it, he couldn't advance to the third level. He had no choice but to patiently try and experiment step by step…

Time flies by, and in this lush and verdant grassland, it seems as if there is no change of seasons. Every day is sunny and the breeze is gentle, making it easy to forget one's own existence and blend into this solitude.

In Xiao Xuanyuan's mental calculations, a year had passed. This was the time when the first batch of spiritual herb seeds had just begun to grow, becoming weak seedlings. In this huge valley, patches of spiritual herb seedlings covered the medicinal fields.

Some seedlings looked sickly, with a pale, withered yellow tinge, as if they were ill; others were lush and vibrant, displaying a different kind of vigor; still others were just beginning to sprout...

"This won't do. It's as green as grass, it's not growing well. This kind of Snow White Gold should be snow-white with a hint of gold, that's normal. This kind of medicinal herb seedling should be sickly, this one is growing too fast, like a sapling. It seems the cultivation conditions are not right..."

Xiao Xuanyuan recorded the characteristics of various spiritual herbs and the specimens of successful and failed cultivation in the early stages. Hei Sha had long since broken free from the control of Na Shi and could stay outside for a long time. At this moment, Hei Sha, who used to be a cute girl with a long ponytail in her mouth, had tied up her hair and was now helping Xiao Xuanyuan like a virtuous and gentle wife.

At this moment, the two of them, inseparable, were just like a newlywed couple, deeply in love, inseparable, respectful and affectionate, their love intense...

Indeed, after Xiao Xuanyuan had been busy for three months, Hei Sha couldn't stand the boredom and loneliness of cultivating in the Na Shi. She ran out and followed Xiao Xuanyuan around every day. Over time, she learned a lot about medicines and even some medicine-making skills. Xiao Xuanyuan taught her these skills in his spare time. Their relationship progressed rapidly, and eventually, Xiao Xuanyuan reluctantly accepted that Hei Sha had become his woman.

Now, the two have been married for about half a year. In fact, given the origin of the black veil, there are no parents or elders. They took heaven and earth as their parents, performed the Zhou Gong ceremony, and officially entered Xiao Xuanyuan's family.

"Hey, Brother Xuanyuan, what's that?" Suddenly, the woman in black gauze turned her head and pointed into the distance, calling out.

The Transmigrator Who Changed Doupo

Chapter Ninety-Five: Fighting Ling Ningdie

"Hey, what is that?"

With a gesture of her jade-like hand, her hair tied up in a black veil, Xiao Xuanyuan put down his work, stood up in confusion, and looked in the direction the veil pointed. Streaks of red light bloomed on the distant horizon, dazzling and eye-catching.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Xuanyuan's eyes revealed a hint of surprise. The dazzling light radiating between heaven and earth was so bright and brilliant that only rare treasures or extraordinary flames could produce such a sign. It all represented the appearance of an extremely rare existence. So what was going on?

Suddenly, a strange and incredibly comfortable current of air surged in, making every cell and pore of his body involuntarily open and desperately breathe. Xiao Xuanyuan immediately judged that the strange object that appeared on the horizon must be a spiritual medicine, and a large quantity of that rare and precious spiritual medicine.

"Let's go take a look!"

Xiao Xuanyuan reached out and pulled the black veil into his arms. His purple cloud wings spread out behind him, and with a gentle flap of his wings, he carried the black veil across the sky, quickly drifting towards the place where the radiance was in full bloom.

The two places were not too far apart, only about ten miles apart. In just a few breaths, Xiao Xuanyuan, wearing a black veil, arrived at the sky in front of him. Looking around, he saw that the mountainside of the small valley was covered with patches of golden medicinal herbs.

This is a high-level spiritual herb called "Golden Valley". Its growth requires an extremely rich spiritual energy environment, and the environment must be arid with abundant sunlight and moonlight. It has extremely demanding environmental requirements.

Provided the environmental requirements are met, its growth rate is quite good. In just three years, it can grow from seed to young adult, then flower in the first year, bear fruit in the second year, and fully mature in the third year, reaching the level required for harvesting.

Moreover, there are requirements for harvesting these "golden valleys." The medicinal fruits cannot touch the ground, soil, or rocks. Otherwise, they will be contaminated and become impurities, greatly reducing their medicinal properties. In severe cases, they will become completely useless and can only be used to feed wild birds and small insects in the mountains.

Looking up, Xiao Xuanyuan saw extremely dense, powerful spiritual energy covering the area like dark clouds pressing down, and locking onto the golden valleys above, lingering there for a long time, firmly absorbed by the lush golden valleys of spiritual herbs below.

This is called "Spirit Locking," something the old master Yao Lao taught me before. When the medicinal herbs in the fields mature in large numbers, the land where the fields are located will automatically form a kind of self-binding, which is the medicinal herbs' self-protective consciousness. They will draw the spiritual energy of the surrounding world to bind themselves to their side. The scale of spiritual energy binding formed by large numbers of "golden valleys" is unimaginable, which is why the "natural spiritual energy binding array of medicinal herb fields" is formed.

If cultivators could cultivate in such a spiritual herb field, it would be twice as effective with half the effort. The benefits and effects would be equivalent to one or two months, or even four or five months, of ordinary hard training. It is extremely rare, because such spiritual herb fields are hard to come by. How could ordinary people encounter so many rare-level natural spiritual herb fields? Even on the scale of private cultivation, Xiao Xuanyuan had never heard of anyone in the Dou Qi Continent. This was the first time he had seen one, and it was in this mysterious and unpredictable Divine Medicine Pavilion.

"A natural spirit-gathering array in the spirit herb field! This is truly a wonderful thing!" Xiao Xuanyuan was overjoyed when he "saw" the massive, dark array. He pulled the black veil along and rushed towards the center of the golden valley in the spirit herb field. He then landed on his purple cloud wings, sat cross-legged, and began to cultivate, absorbing the abundant spiritual energy within the array.

"Wait!"

Just then, a towering celestial horse, four or five meters tall, appeared out of nowhere, blocking Xiao Xuanyuan's path. This celestial horse was covered in blood-red skin, with a single horn on its head, and was extremely majestic and fierce. On its high-backed saddle, a pretty and charming figure dressed in a short-sleeved, close-fitting pink outfit revealed a pair of long, slender legs. A long, fiery red riding whip was held in her fair and soft hand, and with a slight flick, her beautiful eyes were dangerously fixed on the dumbfounded Xiao Xuanyuan in front of her.

Who else could this woman be but Ling Ningdie, the second-level guardian? Xiao Xuanyuan had already secretly used his Heavenly Vision Divine Eye to investigate her true identity and knew her exact background.

To be honest, Xiao Xuanyuan admired this woman quite a bit. Hundreds of thousands of years ago, this woman was a powerful direct descendant of a reclusive family in a remote corner of the Central Continent. Later, her family, the Ling family, faced a life-or-death crisis. She turned the tide and had no choice but to agree to the other party's shameless act of marrying into an enemy force.

Ling Ningdie had resigned herself to her fate, thinking her destiny was over. But just before her wedding, she encountered the former Valley Master of the Alchemy Valley, who was traveling in the Central Continent. This senior was incredibly powerful, and with a single move, he intimidated the Ling family's rivals, who dared not provoke him again. Ling Ningdie was determined to repay the senior's kindness, so she followed him back and entered the mysterious Divine Medicine Pavilion, never to leave again, disappearing from the Dou Qi Continent.

As for what happened to her family afterward, Xiao Xuanyuan had no way of knowing.

All that is known is that this woman has lived for hundreds of thousands of years, her lifespan is the same as that of the Divine Medicine Pavilion, and she has not entered the cycle of reincarnation, remaining ageless and immortal.

"Envoy Ling, why are you stopping me?" Before even seeing Ling Ningdie, the black veil had already transformed into her natal flame, the Six Paths Reincarnation Flame, and returned to Xiao Xuanyuan's body.

"Trespassing on other people's medicinal fields! This is a rule that is prohibited on the second floor. You must leave immediately!" Ling Ningdie's gaze was clear and cold, and a dangerous aura still accompanied her eyes, surrounding Xiao Xuanyuan.

"What if I insist on forcing my way in?" Xiao Xuanyuan remained unmoved and bravely took a small step forward, but his eyes remained fixed on Ling Ningdie's delicate and aloof face, not daring to relax for even a moment.

"Then don't blame me!" Ling Ningdie said softly, and as the last syllable fell, her slender and graceful figure disappeared on the back of the red Pegasus.

The moment Ling Ningdie's figure disappeared, an extremely intense sense of danger suddenly gripped Xiao Xuanyuan's mind. He remained silent, his lips tightly pressed together, and his hands transformed into black and white fireballs that blazed like flames, which he then smashed towards the right side directly in front of him.

The black and white flames collided in an instant, merging into a huge Tai Chi black and white wheel. As it spun, it fiercely pressed forward. This was an ancient fighting technique that Xiao Xuanyuan had once obtained, called "Yin Yang Wheel" or "Yin Yang Tai Chi Diagram". When he used it, a powerful expert who was several stars higher than him and almost a whole level higher was instantly crushed and killed. It can be said to be extremely powerful and can be considered one of his trump cards.

Almost simultaneously, a pair of fair and delicate hands suddenly appeared in front, slicing through the sky like fingers gently touching the surface of water, creating ripples, and then gently touching the center point of the Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram that Xiao Xuanyuan had created...

Chapter Ninety-Six: Punishment

"Yin-Yang Roulette!"

"A trivial skill!"

Ling Ningdie extended her extremely fair, smooth hand, seemingly gently and slowly, but in fact, the speed was so fast that it created this visual illusion. The delicate, slender fingers of her flawless hand touched the center point of the ever-expanding Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram formed by Xiao Xuanyuan's palms.

*Pop!* It seemed like an extremely slight sound, like the response of a small pebble falling into the ripples of a lake. It appeared extremely easy and casual, but the two slender index and middle fingers held together unleashed a powerful impact, forcefully stopping the ever-expanding and powerful Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram for a moment, causing it to pause slightly.

Xiao Xuanyuan felt as if his Yin-Yang Wheel had struck a massive, hard point, forcibly stopping its powerful impact. Immediately afterward, a powerful rebound force struck back through the Yin-Yang Wheel, causing his internal fighting energy to stagnate and become chaotic. His blood and qi surged, and he almost vomited a mouthful of blood, but he managed to suppress it in time.

"So strong!"

The Yin-Yang Taiji diagram in front of Xiao Xuanyuan stopped abruptly, then was shattered by a powerful force, as if a mirror had been broken. The strong reaction force pushed Xiao Xuanyuan back more than ten meters, leaving a deep, long gash on the ground.

"If this is all the strength you have, then you'll be defeated by this old lady today." Ling Ningdie sneered, a cold and wicked smile curving her lips.

As soon as she finished speaking, her figure vanished from the spot, transforming into a blur so fast that no one could see her form, and rushed towards Xiao Xuanyuan.

"What terrifying speed!" Xiao Xuanyuan felt a blur before his eyes, and a swift gust of wind rushed straight to his face, making his hair stand on end. Without regard for anything else, Xiao Xuanyuan hurriedly activated his Heavenly Vision Divine Eye to its limit and released his soul perception power, enveloping all the space around him.

Almost instantly after the two were released, Xiao Xuanyuan caught a glimpse of a white palm shadow that had arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye. Without thinking, Xiao Xuanyuan instinctively raised his arm to block in front of him, and silvery-white dragon flames instantly surrounded it, with a faint dragon roar resounding out.

boom!

Roar!

A powerful bombardment was accompanied by a screaming dragon's roar. Xiao Xuanyuan felt as if his arm bones were about to shatter from the pain. The dragon flames surrounding him were slapped and deformed, clinging to the pores of his arm skin, so weak that they were almost extinguished. The silver dragon within the dragon flames looked dull and lifeless.

With that palm strike, Xiao Xuanyuan's blood and qi surged again, and his aura became extremely unstable. He now realized just how terrifying the woman in front of him was.

*Sizzle...*

Another long gash appeared, and seeing that the terrifying woman was about to pounce on him again, Xiao Xuanyuan hurriedly shouted, "Stop, stop, stop! I'm not fighting anymore, I'm not fighting anymore..."

Upon hearing this, Ling Ningdie stopped her attack. Her slender and graceful figure hovered in mid-air. She looked Xiao Xuanyuan up and down with a slightly playful expression on her pretty face, making Xiao Xuanyuan's scalp tingle. She teased, "Didn't you want to cultivate in the spirit field? Fine, I'll grant you that request."

"Um..." Xiao Xuanyuan's gaze kept sweeping over Ling Ningdie's expression. How could he dare to say "no"? But then he thought, why should a grown man like himself be afraid of a woman? If he were looked down upon by a woman, he would feel very embarrassed. So, he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue and changed his words: "I do want to cultivate in the spirit field, but if you stop me like this, how can I cultivate?"

"You've got some ideas. There's no such thing as a free lunch. If you have the guts, you'll have to get past me first." Ling Ningdie's charming eyes swept over Xiao Xuanyuan's face with a hint of disdain, a touch of mockery in them.

Xiao Xuanyuan was initially hesitant, fearing the woman's terrifying strength, but the woman's disdainful gaze ignited his anger. Damn it, so be it if I die!
